The cast-in-place balanced cantilever bridges are becoming popular in Turkey. Most of the highway bridges are designed using a modified version of the AASHTO bridge specifications. Differences in US design practice and Turkish design practice will be summarized in this paper. The differences are usually observed in design loads and in selection of concrete material properties. The static and dynamic analysis of bridges including construction staging is similar to the ones in USA. A case study is presented at the end of the paper.

Improvement of computational software for composite curved bridge analysis
Kalaycı, Ahmet Serhat; Topkaya, Cem; Department of Civil Engineering (2005)
In highway bridge construction, composite curved girder bridges are becoming more popular recently. Reduced construction time, long span coverage, economics and aesthetics make them more popular than the other structural systems. Although there exist some methods for the analysis of such systems, each have shortcomings. The use of Finite Element Method (FEM) among these methods is limited except in the academic environments. The use of commercial FEM software packages in the analysis of such systems is cumb...
SEISMIC RETROFIT OF OLD BRIDGES WITH SEISMIC ISOLATION
Caner, Alp; Shaban, Nefize (null; 2017-01-05)
A standard highway bridge has usually multi simple spans supported over piers by elastomeric bearings in Turkey. The bearings usually do not provide a positive connection but in contact with girder and pier by only gravitational forces. In this study, a model test bridge of about ½ scale have been shaken under low to moderate earth quakes to determine the change in response of the bridge with different seismic isolation configurations. Three configurations of bearings are elastomeric bearings, lead core bea...
Calibration of Turkish LRFD bridge design method for slab on steel plate girders
Koç, Ahmet Fatih; Caner, Alp; Department of Civil Engineering (2013)
Steel composite I-girder bridges are usually used to span between 50 to 80 meters in Turkey. In a typical Turkish bridge design, a modified version of the AASHTO LFD (Load Factor Design) or ASD (Allowable Stress Design) requirements are used until now. The recent switch of the US bridge codes to LRFD method also necessitates the calibration of the new design of the Turkish bridges according to the LRFD system. The main aim of this study is to define a new type of live (truck) load to be used in the basic gr...
Seismic vulnerability of masonry structures in Turkey
Ceran, Hasan Burak; Erberik, Murat Altuğ; Department of Civil Engineering (2010)
This study focuses on the evaluation of seismic safety of masonry buildings in Turkey by using fragility curves. Fragility curves for masonry buildings are generated by two behavior modes for load bearing walls: in-plane and out-of-plane. By considering the previous research and site investigations, four major parameters have been used in order to classify masonry buildings with in-plane behavior mode. These are number of stories, strength of load-bearing wall material, regularity in plan and the arrangemen...
Cost optimum design of reinforced concrete bridge piers for standard highway bridges
Orak, Celil; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2022-2)
Bridges are among the most important cost items of transportation projects in Turkey and in the world. In bridge engineering, superstructures are designed with optimization through years of experience. However, the same is not true for infrastructre elements such as piers. The evaluation of the bridge piers,built in Turkey and around the world, considering structural design shows that they are "overdesign" elements suitable for optimization. The ratio of the cost of the piers to the total bridge cost is aro...
